God will save me, if he exists!
KIEV (Reuters) - A man shouting that God would keep him safe was mauled to death by a lioness in Kiev zoo after he crept into the animal's enclosure, a zoo official said on Monday.
"The man shouted 'God will save me, if he exists', lowered himself by a rope into the enclosure, took his shoes off and went up to the lions," the official said.
"A lioness went straight for him, knocked him down and severed his carotid artery."
The incident, Sunday evening when the zoo was packed with visitors, was the first of its kind at the attraction. Lions and tigers are kept in an "animal island" protected by thick concrete blocks.

God had already "saved" the man by giving him a thinking mind and free will to act on his own accord.
The fact the lion killed him has nothing to do with God's existence.

Who says that the man dying means he's losing? Perhaps he is now in a better place (i.e. Heaven) and thus God HAS saved him.
